Chapter 1878 The true face [2 more]
After collecting the gold and silver of Lu Gongwang, the waiter took a deep breath and looked at Lu Gongwang to simply inform Lu Gongwang of the conversation between Emperor Xin and Su Daji.
Lu Gongwang was stunned when he heard this, as if he couldn't believe that Emperor Xin would give such a kingly order. Their marquis are one of the four great marquis countries. They were arrogant in Xiqi. Unexpectedly, Emperor Xin would insult them in such a way.
Kneeling all the way from the Marquis' Mansion to the palace is nothing that a Marquis can do. Not to mention a Marquis, I am afraid that any official will be treated like this, which is a great humiliation.
"hateful……"
Before Lu Gongwang could get angry, he saw a strong hand pressing on Lu Gongwang's shoulder. At the same time, a familiar voice of Lu Gongwang sounded in his ears: "Why do you have to be angry, General?"
Turning around slightly, Lu Gong looked at Ji Chang and saw Ji Chang with a gentle smile on his face, bowing to the waiter, "Ji Chang has met the envoy."
The waiter quickly returned a tribute and said he didn't dare to
Ji Chang smiled and said, "I don't know that the king sent an envoy to come, but the king's order was passed down."
The waiter looked at Ji Chang and sighed in his heart: "Mr. Marquis, the young man was ordered to come and convey the king's order, the king's order, and the Xibo Hou Ji Chang bowed all the way to the palace to meet him."
Ji Chang listened to the king's order conveyed by the waiter with a calm expression, then nodded slightly and said, "Since it is the king's order, Ji Chang will take the order."
The waiter left the Marquis's mansion in a daze, feeling so incredible. He thought Ji Chang would be furious after receiving the king's order, but Ji Chang was so calm that he couldn't believe it.
It seems like it is taking a very ordinary command.
When the attendant left the Marquis' Mansion, Lu Gongwang could no longer help but growled and said, "I'm too much to deceive others. I'm wronged to be the lord of the Great Shang Dynasty. How dare I bully the Marquis in such a way?"
As he said that, Mr. Lu looked at Ji Chang and said, "Marty, I have been so humiliated by the Marquis, let's turn it around..."
Ji Chang shouted, "Stop talking, the king's capital is important, don't talk nonsense."
Mr. Lu reacted suddenly and quickly set up a ban, then said: "Marty, we..."
Ji Chang's eyes flashed with a wise divine light and said slowly: "If Emperor Xin is really so absurd, that would be better. Even if this lord is humiliated, so what if this lord is humiliated? I hope he can be more absurd."
Lu Gongwang is worthy of being one of the four sages of Xiqi. His wisdom is naturally not bad. He immediately understood that if Emperor Xin was indeed a ridiculous and incompetent lord, then it would naturally be a great blessing for them. If Emperor Xin was wise and divine, that would not be a good thing.
After understanding this, Lu Gongwang was still a little unacceptable and said, "But that son actually ordered the marquis to bow and worship all the way to the palace to meet him. This kind of humiliation..."
Ji Chang chuckled and said, "It's just a little bit of humiliation. Can you still hurt me? Generals should know that we are in Luoyi now, and every move we make must be careful. If we are negligent, we may lose our lives."
Lu Gongwang looked righteous and said, "Lu Gongwang remembers the teachings of the Marquis."
With a loud laugh, Ji Chang said, "Open the door of the mansion, I will bow all the way to the palace to meet the king."
At the same time, Bi Gan, Shang Rong, Huang Feihu and others also received news that they could not help but be anxious when they learned that Emperor Xin had given such a ridiculous order.
Not to mention how Ji Chang would react when he received the order, he might force Xiqi to rebel. More importantly, this move may humiliate Ji Chang, but it will also make the impression of Emperor Xin in the hearts of the Chinese people.
It can be imagined that if Ji Chang really bowed all the way to the palace, the Chinese people learned that someone might laugh at Ji Chang, but they were afraid that most people would only sympathize with Ji Chang and believed that Emperor Xin was a tyrant monarch.
"No, we must stop the king."
Bigan went to the palace to persuade Emperor Xin to take back the king's order, while Shang Rong and Huang Feihu came straight to the mansion of Ji Chang, preparing to stop Ji Chang.
When they arrived, Ji Chang was about to bow and worship and enter the palace according to Emperor Xin's order.
Shang Rong Yuanyuan saw Ji Chang lifting his front to kneel down and couldn't help but shout: "Haven, please wait."
Ji Chang looked up at Shang Rong, and saw Shang Rong and Huang Feihu walking quickly. Ji Chang's eyes flashed with a strange look when he saw this.
At the same time, Shang Rong and Huang Feihu arrived. Shang Rong said anxiously: "The king's order is too ridiculous. The marquis must not obey the order."
Ji Chang looked helpless and said, "The King Ling Yu, how can our ministers disobey? Lord Shang, King Wucheng should not persuade him."
Shang Rong said anxiously: "But when the marquis kneels down, where will the king be placed? Will not everyone in the country think that the king is a foolish lord?"
Huang Feihu on the side stared at Ji Chang's eyes, as if he wanted to see through Ji Chang.
Ji Chang sighed: "It is difficult to violate the king's order, how dare Ji Chang disobey the king's order?"
While speaking, Ji Chang lifted up his front and bowed down, while Shang Rong's body stiffened. Looking at Ji Chang's kneeling down, his eyes were full of confusion.
At this moment, Huang Feihu supported Shang Rong and said, "Master Shang, let's go to the palace to meet the king."
Shang Rong looked at Ji Chang with one step and a kowtow, looked at Ji Chang with complicated eyes, stomped his feet and headed straight for the palace with Huang Feihu.
Ji Chang looked at Shang Rong and Huang Feihu leaving, and looked pious, and he looked completely loyal to the Great Shang Dynasty and did not dare to disobey the king's orders at all.
In the palace, Bi Gan Zheng had a dispute with Emperor Xin. Due to the influence of the disaster, Emperor Xin would not be polite to Bi Gan and said coldly: "Uncle Bi Gan, if you want me to take back my king's order, how can I maintain my face?"
Bigan said anxiously: "The king humiliated Ji Chang so much, I am afraid that Xiqi will not accept it."
Su Daji said on the sidelines: "Xiqi is not convinced? Do they have the courage to rebel?"
Upon hearing this, Bigan couldn't help but point at Su Daji and shouted: "You demon concubine, I talk to the king, how can you be qualified to interfere?"
"King..."
Su Daji suddenly felt wronged and leaned in Di Xin's arms. The pear blossoms were covered with rain, and they were charming. Di Xin quickly comforted Su Daji and said angrily to Bigan: "Bigan, you still have the eyesight, so you can retreat quickly."
Bi Gan stomped his feet, knowing that Emperor Xin was confused by the aura of disaster at this time, and he was not Wen Zhong. If Wen Zhong was there, he could still suppress Emperor Xin Yi Er, but now he had no way to deal with Emperor Xin.
Shang Rong, when Huang Feihu saw Bi Gan, Bi Gan sighed outside the garden with a depressed look on his face. When he saw Shang Rong and the other two, Bi Gan hurriedly said: "Did you both persuade Ji Chang? Ji Chang has always been loyal and only for the king's reputation, and Ji Chang will definitely not accept the order..."
"Hmph, I think that Ji Chang seems loyal, but in fact he has ulterior motives. Fei Zhong, Youhun and the others really didn't wrong this person."
As a military general, Huang Feihu was upright and told Bigan what happened after they saw Ji Chang.
After hearing this, Bigan slowly closed her eyes, and after a while, she opened her eyes and said, "Xibohou Ji Chang, alas..."
With a long sigh, I don’t know how many emotions I hide.
Shang Rong and Bi Gan were all people with clear minds. They could see how harmful the king's destiny would bring to Emperor Xin. If Ji Chang didn't believe that, they wouldn't be able to see it.
If they were them, they would rather go against the order of Emperor Xin than accept the order. However, a smart person like Ji Chang obeyed the order of the king. What does this mean? Shang Rong, do they not know what it means?
Huang Feihu saw the expressions of Bigan and Shang Rong in his eyes, and sneered: "Ji Chang is really not simple. He can seize the opportunity and endure what ordinary people cannot tolerate. He can definitely be regarded as a hero. The king insisted on recruiting him to Luoyi, and he did nothing wrong."
